In rural Canada, gaming is much more of a kid thing. Most of the adults are either playing hockey, watching hockey, or drinking and chilling. When I was a kid, and my friends who have kids now, all have NiN consoles and played quite a bit. Most of my friends plan on getting their kids a Switch, but not for another year or two until the price comes down. The prices here are quite a bit higher than in the States now, plus we tend to always pay more regardless. If Switch sales are that good in Canada now, they should get a lot better as the years go by.

Same reason why Bruce Banner tries to stay as calm as possible. We don't turn red when we're really mad. Being helpful leads to everyone working less overall, making everybody more happy and content. It helps all of us from eventually getting really pissed off and showing our "true colours". For the angier bunch of us, being able to get any tension out with body checks and fist fights through sport helps as well, plus it's entertaining for the rest.

Well, depends which part of Canada you're talking about. Here in Vancouver, there is way too much rain and greyness, probably even more than Britain to be honest. |
Canada has a wide range of weather, but overall, it doesn't matter if it's boiling or freezing out, more often than not, the sky is clear and the sun is out, so at least it's visually appealing. Not to mention those beautiful landscape pictures and movies everyone see's, are more normal to us. When you live in a place where it can be -35C in Jan, and +35C in July, you learn what really sucks and what isn't so bad. Most things in life aren't so bad, it's just harder to tell if your living in comfort most of the time. When your able to hate the way the temperature makes you feel because your continually adjusting to it, you end up happier about everything else.
